Gh Pr Checks Plan Fix
Overview
Use gh to locate failing PR checks, fetch GitHub Actions logs for actionable failures, summarize the failure snippet, then propose a fix plan and implement after explicit approval.
- If a plan-oriented skill (for example
create-plan) is available, use it; otherwise draft a concise plan inline and request approval before implementing.
Prereq: authenticate with the standard GitHub CLI once (for example, run gh auth login), then confirm with gh auth status (repo + workflow scopes are typically required).
Inputs
repo: path inside the repo (default.)pr: PR number or URL (optional; defaults to current branch PR)ghauthentication for the repo host
Quick start
python "/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr ""- Add
--jsonif you want machine-friendly output for summarization.
Workflow
- Verify gh authentication.
- Run
gh auth statusin the repo. - If unauthenticated, ask the user to run
gh auth login(ensuring repo + workflow scopes) before proceeding.
- Run
- Resolve the PR.
- Prefer the current branch PR:
gh pr view --json number,url. - If the user provides a PR number or URL, use that directly.
- Prefer the current branch PR:
- Inspect failing checks (GitHub Actions only).
- Preferred: run the bundled script (handles gh field drift and job-log fallbacks):
python "/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr ""- Add
--jsonfor machine-friendly output.
- Manual fallback:
gh pr checks --json name,state,bucket,link,startedAt,completedAt,workflow- If a field is rejected, rerun with the available fields reported by
gh.
- If a field is rejected, rerun with the available fields reported by
- For each failing check, extract the run id from
detailsUrland run:gh run view --json name,workflowName,conclusion,status,url,event,headBranch,headShagh run view --log
- If the run log says it is still in progress, fetch job logs directly:
gh api "/repos///actions/jobs//logs" > ""
- Preferred: run the bundled script (handles gh field drift and job-log fallbacks):
- Scope non-GitHub Actions checks.
- If
detailsUrlis not a GitHub Actions run, label it as external and only report the URL. - Do not attempt Buildkite or other providers; keep the workflow lean.
- If
- Summarize failures for the user.
- Provide the failing check name, run URL (if any), and a concise log snippet.
- Call out missing logs explicitly.
- Create a plan.
- Use the
create-planskill to draft a concise plan and request approval.
- Use the
- Implement after approval.
- Apply the approved plan, summarize diffs/tests, and ask about opening a PR.
- Recheck status.
- After changes, suggest re-running the relevant tests and
gh pr checksto confirm.

scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py
Fetch failing PR checks, pull GitHub Actions logs, and extract a failure snippet. Exits non-zero when failures remain so it can be used in automation.
Usage examples:
python "/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "123"python "/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123" --jsonpython "/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --max-lines 200 --context 40
